Jatropha multifida, commonly known as Coral Plant, Physic Nut, or Guatemala Rhubarb, is a fast-growing tropical shrub admired for its deeply lobed, fern-like leaves and striking coral-red flowers. Native to Central America, this plant adds an exotic, sculptural presence to gardens and containers. The foliage is a soft bluish-green with an elegant, lacy appearance, while the bright red flowers attract butterflies and pollinators throughout the warm months.

Features:

  • Unique, deeply lobed foliage resembling coral or lace

  • Clusters of small, vibrant red flowers throughout the growing season

  • Can grow as a small tree or large shrub up to 2–3 meters tall

  • Attracts butterflies and other pollinators

  • Excellent for tropical-style gardens or large containers

  • Fast-growing and drought-tolerant once established

Care Tips:

  • Light: Prefers full sun to partial shade. Needs at least 4–6 hours of sunlight daily.

  • Watering: Water regularly during the growing season but allow soil to dry slightly between waterings. Reduce watering in winter.

  • Soil: Grows best in well-draining soil; tolerates poor soils once established.

  • Temperature: Thrives in warm climates; protect from frost. Ideal range is 20–30°C.

  • Fertilizer: Apply a balanced fertiliser during spring and summer for healthy growth and flowering.

  • Pruning: Prune to shape and encourage bushier growth. Handle with care, as the sap is toxic.
